buy a dog if they came from there but the same percentage said they did not know that most tussore puppies come from puppy mills. so we launched the no pet store puppy campaign to bridge the gap. lou: i know increasingly going into a pet store en you have four dogs and cat but with fewer stores have dogs in them. >> that great. lou: is that happening across the country? >> the momentum is headed in that direction which we at the aspca love. we did another poll that people who adopted a dog from a shelter as opposed to a pet store had a much more positive experience feeling it was more honest and

transparent transaction. and they have fewer problems lou: the number of dogs up for adoption, ll us where you are. >> leer at about 57 million dogs and the vast majority are adoptable and half are euthanize because nobody adapts them lou: it is great for you to bring these dogs down here. she has a broken leg but she is an example of what happened to the owners. they were broken hearted but could not afford the better dairy bills that were necessary. that is wonderful.

i am sure your up next. thank you so much. aspca's campaign, check out our website. we thank you for being with us. good night weekend. >> welcome, i am shibani joshi and four gerri wilis. we will tackle the new blackberry. as i don't have anything to worry about? we will discover and talk about thats well. and the faa starts to close air

traffic control towers. we will tell you how that can affect your travel plans going into the spring. but first, raising $8.5 billion and euros needed to see the bailout from the european central bank. it has created a solidarity, allowing the government to have power to impose capital controls on the big banks. while worried residents are lining up at atms. joining me now to help me with these developments is leadership for euro pacific capital. let me just start off the bat and ask you, the country has reed to this solidarity funds.

but i can't quite tell if this is the solution that the eu wants. could make good on the threat to kick out cypress? >> anything is possible. you know, i think the outrage over this deposit tax is about the honesty of the approach. if you think about it, citizens around the world suffer from that tax. in the united states, how long have we had 0 #% interest rates in the united states? how much money have savers lost who keep money in the bank because they have not received interest on deposits all these years? what about prices? because the federal reserve does quantitative easing, food prices go up, gas prices up, and deposits lose value. at least with the tax in cypress, it was more honest. the government up front saying we're going to take your money. we're doing it secretly, and i think the honest approach is better.

shibani: they make parallels in cypress, and what you mentioned happens here in the u.s., but the levy on bank deposits, thi is what is causing a storm, and it's really getting people upset. are you concerned about any kind of precedence this could bring into the industry into europe and what it could do to banking confidence as a whole because when you start to have runs on banks anruns into ats as we see vis walls of and people concerned about whether or not they get their money, that creates panic. >> yeah, i think, you know, it could be a wakeup call. i own an offshore bank in the caribbean, and our business, since the cypress event, is up about 150%, so a lot of people are looking for safer places to park money because people are starting to think about whether deposit insurance is not all that it's marketed to be. the fdia insures 8 trillion in

depositsbut 25 billion in reserves. my bank in the caribbean is a 100% reserve bank, and we don't make any loans. the reason the banks are in troublbecause if they made the mistake of loaning money to the greek government. people are looking for banks that don't need deposit insurance because they don't have a risky balance sheet, and i think that's why my bank gets popular and i think the same it happening in other banks that have a far more conservative approach to banks because they don't hav the deposit insurance. the problem with the deposit insurance is the bank that have it act wrecklessly and put deposits in jeopardy. my accounts are not insured, therefore, i don't take risks. i think the customers appreciate that more than ever right now. shibani: you know what we talk about here, peter, as well was the con tashes effect. you talked about the biggest problem that was had was it has exposure to greece, but you can say that about italy, spain, portugal, and list basically every other european nation out

there. what sort of pandora's box could become unfurled if we do see the problems in cypress not resolve itself in a timely and expent manner? >> that is the risk. we have a banking system throughout the world where banks retain a small percentage of the actual deposits, and they rely on this government guarantee to stop the runs because customers are confident that the bank's not going to fail no matter how small because of the government, but if people start to question that, because, remember, thing thes, -- the accounts were insured, if people think, well, if it happens in cypress, it happens anybody. it's not, you know, it's not what happens in cypress stays in cypress, that is the concern that depositors all around the world, not just in europe, but here in the united states start to get worries, and they go to the bank to wthdrawal their money, and it's a significant number of people try to do that,

that's the concern. shibani: you worry when you see on the cover of the "wall street journal" another bailout for insert cntry here in europe. been here, done that before. talk about what could happen -- there has been talk about what could happen in italy th that country imposing a tax on deposits. how likely do you think that something like this could be mimicked over across different parts of europe which we know are still having a very hard time coming up with their own solidarity measures. >> well, i don't think -- i think -- i do think cypress was an extreme example. it's an offshore money haven. tremendous amounts of money on deposit there from all around the world, russia, great britain, and the banks paid higher rates of interest there, higher than in continental europe, even with the haircut. depositors would be ahead of the game, but i think in the other countries, they are going to resort to a more insidious deposit tax, inflation. i think you're going to see money printing all around the

world, and that is going to destroy the value of bank deposits. i think savers need to realize that no matter what form it comes, savers are going to be sacrificed on the altar of similar los, and there's a decline in the value of deposits even if you don't lose them. they talked about a 6% or 7%, 10% tax in cypress. i think inflation is going to take much more than 10% of the purchasing power out of bank accounts all around the world, not just in europe, but here in the united states. i think that's why a lot of savers are pulling their money out of banks, buying stocks, buying real estate. they are buying precious metals because more people realize that if they hold on to the currency and leave it in the bank, it is going to lose a lot of value. shibani: right. talk about the united states, and what we did not see today, peter, was a market reaction to this because the's a belief well, on the one hand, things are going to get resolvedded in cypress. on the other hand, we are the best of the worst markets that

are out there. you know, at what point could that turn on us because that -- that scenario can't survive forever. >> well, we're to the close to being the best of the worst. i think weir -- we might be the worst of the worst. it's just that a lot of people have not figured that out yet. still have the perception that the u.s. -- shibani: we are growing unlike europe. we are growing up like europe. >> i don't believe we're growing. i don't believe we grow at all. we are borrowing money and ending it consistenting spending borrowed money as economic growt but i think if we were more honest about how high the level of inflation is, you know, in order to get our meager economic growth, we assume there's no inflation. if you -- if you don't take the government's numbers at face value, if you asume the inflation rate is not 1.5% a year, but maybe 4% 5%, or 6% a year, we're not growing but contracting.

we've been in contraction for years making a lot more sense to me, given the huge collapse of the labor pool, you know, i think -- i think it makes a lot more sense that the economy is not growing. all we're doing is spending more money for the things that we buy and so it's a charade, a facade. looks like we're growing, but we're contracting. i think that's going to get worse as time goes on. shibani: fueled by money printing. peter, always great to have you on. thank you very much for joining us today. >> you're welcome. shibani: switching gears and giving lou dobbs a chance of this. if the tiny med trainian island collapses, does it take the entire eurozone with it? i saw you taking notes. i know you want to jump in here, thouts on what peter said? >> peter, i always enjoy listening to his perspective on the world. he said that cypress, you know, could happen anywhere. he did later acknowledge it was an extreme example of banking

and sovereignty gone wrong. here's the reality. cypress is now learning that it made serious mistakes. it tried to take the eurozone, the european commission, the inrnational monetary fund and the e. cb to the brink. they play ad like fools. that's how they got in this position. they were reminded of that by the russians who rejected the bailout program. they behaved as i said, foolishly, irresponsibly, and they are paying a price for it with no choice now other tthan o to brussels with hands out, contrite, and say, you know, you will dictate the future of the island. a million people behavingas if they could take 500 million people in the european union and slap them, you know, upside the head. it's irresponsible. what peter ship had to say, i mean, come on. i mean, i love listening to him because he has such an

adventurous and imaginative mind. the best of the worst? i can't imagine why peter would want to live in this economy. my, god, why not go off and live over the, you know, put his residence on top of that offshore bank and make sure he manages it well, have a good time. this is an absurdity of the this is -- if anything, right now, the united states, we have a market for which there is a premium for security, and for responsibility, and as -- as we listen to all of these sort of, what i call the neocons of economics, nonsense, the reality is that we're getting better, we're getting stronger. we ae solidifying progress, and cypress will be a -- won't even be a footnote a month from now. the european union is asserting leadership and it is coming to its senses about how to build a better future for what's been a very difficult, i mean, think of the complexity of what they are

managing there compared to what we are doing. shibani: absolutely. you can't compare them. there's strength in the dollar, the markets are near all-time highs, and recovery, and there's pockets of the economy. way we still see, you say that cypress may just be a footnote, and -- >> it will be. it will be. shibani: what's not a footnote is the pattern that existed for the last, probably, well, since the creation of the eurozone, but certainly over the last five years. >> sure, uh-huh. shibani: all of the nations, portugal, ireland, italy, greece, spain on the brink of collapse, and the eurozone comes to rescue them, and the global markets are held hostage, and then they get rescued because we know they will, and then here we go again. >> well, you say "here we go again," and we're seeing a continuation of the effort to consolidate the progress that has been made in the european union, and if you look back over the last 30 years of what the europeans achieved, give them

great credit. when you look at what we've all achieved whether in europe or in the united states since 2007 nd 2008, we've come a long way. federal reserve, i mean, you know, what i call the cnbc shorts like, you know, peter ship, they are drumming up business here, not analyzing a situation, a financial or economic crisis. he's trying to drive business to an offshore bank for cring out loud. i'm trying to keep clear this: one, our markets are far more secure than given credit for, and i ensure you investors pay a premium in the market for the security. we're going to see the european union, the 17 finance ministers of the eurozone will meet sunday. they will approve the deal, which will be less than we're told, at least, less than 11% con fig accusation. call it what it is, of the deposits, and i it sufficient? certainly not, but it's a

beginning. there's a a lot better than where we were aweek ago. shibani: the markets roll on? i think the markets continue strong and move forward. they are stable and growing, and i'm talking about american markets. you know, hallelujah. shibani: we like that and the enthusiasm and the confidence. that's what we need in moments like this. lou dobbs, thank you very much. >> thank ou. shibani: tune into lou dobbs after this show and every night at 7 and 10 p.m. here here the fox business network. coming up, look at the bigge ideas in tech. the big headlines in technology including a new address app that could be a must-have for you. we'll tell you what that is, and blackberry's ceo says apple's iphone is out of ate? this is the new blackberry hitting store shelfs today in the united states. will the writers be wrong? we'll debate it. plus, we'll hear from ou as well. stay tuned.

shibani: blackberry larching its first touch screen device today in the united states, the z10. will the release of this device be the turning point for the companyythat is in a lot of need of a turn around. is it too little too late? joining me is a senior research analyst, and, ramone, great to have you on today for the launch day for blackberry, and the "wall street journal" called this a flop already. the reason is that they didn't see much promotion at at&t stores selling the device, it was in the back of the store, and what do you think of that? >> i think promotion is very key

element to getting a new platform out there, and right now, it's just the beginning. granted, there's been reports that the blackberry z10 is pushed to the back of the storemnt i want them to take the lead in the entire marketing message. you know, come out aggressively, you know, guns ablazing, and show, you know, here, this is the device that is something so different out there, and it's better than what you had in the past from blackberry and stands its own against android and apple. shibani: is that a reality for the company that's an underdog in the z10 phone? i know you had it. i've been able to play with it. i think it's a good phone. i don't think this is better than any phone that's out there. how can they put the push there when they are not criticizing it, which is an iphone killer. >> it's great. don't be the killer, be the blackberry. i would be looking at this, saying, here, look, we have a

great device, go after the bread and butter, the enterprise user, go after the consumers and people who don't have these smart phones yet, and when you look at that kind of step mentality to, you know, roll out your deve and go after different marketing segments, it's going to be clear, you know, where your pockets of interest will be and how you focus message from that point on. iphone, it's not probably the best way to go jus yet. shibani: got to be something to somebody,,and the enterprise customer is out there with a lot of choices, android, microsoft phones, the iphone at that. i mean, what is blak blackberrys strategy here? are they ting to get a foothold and grow the market share, or are they just trying to keep current customers from fleeing to other devices? those are two different strategies. >> absolutely, they are, but, you know, look at it this way. at the end of the 2012, blackberry had 2% market share in the united states based on

shipments. still that's just 2%. where can it go from here is most lickly up. it is going to reach the samsungs and an droids and apples of the united states? no. they are in double digit territory. you know, this is something that i think enterprise users look at saying, listen, we worked with blackberry 7 for a long time, and, you know what? it's time to move to something different and more updated -- something to be, you know, reflective of what we want in 2011, not something we used since 2009 and 2010. shibani: all the phones i have, the iphone, my z10, and my regular blackberry. i think they made a critical mistake in not getting the phone with the keyboard app. i have a 3-year-old keyboard phone and will not give it up. this was a critical, i think, misstep, that the company did not take, and to win over very important customers, but they got time for that. ramone, thank you very much for joining us today, and, of course, we want to know what you think because that's what

today, and, you know, we are getting excited responses about that. one of the thiigs i struggle with is my parents and inlaws, for example, are not on facebook. they are not on the technology sites, and they just receive e-mails, so what we are doing with the grouping feature now is that we make the app completely independent of any particular platform so anyone who has an e-mail or phone now can receive photos, e-mails, techs, and you can do it in a group very privatety. shibani: you are not on android yet, primarily focused on iphones, and, you know, iphones in general, recently, ve taken a lot of heat. they are -- they are -- a lot of comparisons made to the iphone with what's out with the new samsung phone and the new blackberry out today. what's the thoughts as a developer? why did you choose apple for the launch of the new company? >> for us, you know, one was for

the perspective of the user ourself, and the biggest point was we were struggling with our address book, always stale, very, you know, unreliable if you will, and then we chose apple becse as a developer and a small company, it was much easier to build on. it was one hardware form factor, if you will and there was one os. as a small company, it's much, much easier to build it out, test it, and roll out the product to the market. we also think that we are enabling the entire platform to do better so we are hoping to enhance, you know, the apple products and, hopefully, quickly, down the road, android as well. shibani: how do you make money from this if it's free? >> we hope to add premium features within the app so we, for example, today, provide local time contacts, and, tomorrow, that could be better

maybe, we would charge for that. shibani: got it. thank you, ceo of adapt to clean up and make all of our address books. thank you very much. >> thank you. shibani: when we come back, is now the time to book your summer vacation? it's not even easter yet. we got must-hear travel trips for you, and, next, tech friday continues with a look at the new way you will be paying for things and why your wallet, well, check that out. it may be useless pretty soon. don't do ay. copd makes it hard to breathe, but with advair, i'm breathing better. so now i can be in the scene. advair is clinically proven to help significantly improve lung function.

income individuals, the incentive is to spend more and get more, but for lower and middle income individuals, which is who you target, you are giving them a different incentive system here: why is that important right now? >> there's a few reasons. first it social security a perverse incentive to insent somebody not making a lot of money to spend more money on the card. the second is, on prepaid cards, the economics don't support incremental reward schemes so it makes sense for everyone in the value chain to use a sweep stakes mode smit: a big part is education; right? education of using the card in an appropriate fashion. why is that also a key -- a key promise of what you are doing? >> well, we're at an innovation conference, so many innovations and payments in the marketplace. what's challenging is getting consumers to understand the features and benefits getting them to adopt them. that's what pay perks is here r,r, educate consumers about what products and features are available for them and get them to use them in ways that

especially if you travel around some of the higher travel periods like memorial day weekend or the summer, july 4th holidays, these weeks around these holiday periods are when weee some of the highest travel volumes during the summer. shibani: i have not booked spring break, and now i have to think about summer. you gave me things to dthis weekend. thank you, see you soon. >> my pleasure. shibani: now you know when to book, pick the destination, and tonight's to five, the top summer destinations based on booking so far on orbitz.com. number five, los angelesings there's a lot to do in the city of angels from biking or shopping on the promenade in santa monica. number our, seattle. surprisingly, it doesn't rain so much there in the summer. you actually see things. there's plenty more scenery to take in there, and there's day trips to portland or vancouver. number three, cancun, mention
